Limitless Movement is a method which erases the certain thickness of a dance “shape” and focuses on the “intention” of that shape. If that intention is zoomed in, you have the time, space and courage to explore a certain shape because it’s not a border anymore. After exploring, we bring the zoomed-in intention to the shape and become a “shapeless shape”.
During the class we will explore elements of West and South African, Afro-Cuban folklore and contemporary, Mambo, Son Chachacha, Contemporary (with Graham Technique exercises).
